Summer is well upon us and what better way to celebrate the warmer days and longer evenings than to grab some fresh sprigs of mint from the garden, muddle yourself up a refreshing mojito (or a nojito if you’re driving), and relax with our exclusive guide to the freshest Linux flavour around.

Linux Mint 20 has hit the mirrors, and  it’s one of the finest releases yet. It’s long  been our go-to recommendation for  people taking their first steps with Linux.  Cinnamon, Mint’s homespun desktop, is  ideal if you prefer a traditional home computing environment, in the style of  Windows 7 (only much better, of course).  For fans of Gnome 2, or for those people  who are running lower-powered machines,  don’t forget the Mate and Xfce editions,  either. With this release, all three desktops  have seen marked improvements.
